Super Groovy 1970s Disco Era Vintage Grayish-Blue Polyester Blazer & Pants / Trousers Made in U.S.A. by JOHNNY CARSON. Yes, the great American talk show host had his own line of clothing! Nice heavy sleek polyester shell partially lined in a shiny red, white & blue plaid nylon taffeta material. The jacket also features a double vented back for superior ease of movement. There is a two button front with large blue and gray marble-look plastic buttons and there are four smaller matching buttons on each cuff. The jacket has two interior pockets and three exterior pockets. The front pocket flaps are backed with the jacket's lining material and may be tucked in if the wearer desires a more streamlined besom pocket look. The pants have a flat front with no pleats or cuffs with slightly flared hems. There is extra hem fabric to lengthen them if needed. A Groovy Disco Era Suit!
